Smartphone under rs 7k

[h4x0rl33t94]

hi guys i want to buy a samrtphone but i have a tight budget of rs 7k. Can anyone help?

Nokia 5230 & Micromax Andro will come in 7k. or can try Samsung's Wave. but they really don't qualify as a smartphone OS.

5230 is good cellphone, i have it.

But what kind of phone do you want???
QWERTY or TouchScreen or Bar Phone or Slider....
For QWERTY
* Nokia C3
* Samsung Chat 335
For TouchScreen
* Micromax Android
* Nokia 5230
* Samsung Galaxy 5- 8k

thanks for the advice guys i looked at your advice and have shortlisted two phones the nokia 5230 and the galaxy 5. Also i have read in some reviews that the galaxy 5 has awful battery life can anyone confirm? thnks again

All Android phones have awful battery life - courtesy: powerful hardware. If you want the real smartphone taste, get the Galaxy 5. Nokia 5230 is a good choice but not that great.

Don't go for the Micromax. Samsung Wave (533 & 525) can also be considered but remember that they don't have 3G.

nokia c5. the best for its price with an awesome battery life n a good camera with gps

 

[himangshu]

Nokia C5 hands down!

If you want a full touchscreen experience... a better user interface than Nokia C5, good browser, but sacrificing a little on built quality, then go for Samsung Wave 525 (Video)

Also look at

Dell XCD 28 (Video)

Spice Mi-310 (Link)

All 3 phones very close to your 7k budget...

Also, Nokia C5 is NOT a smartphone... its a feature phone...

^^ Ahem! Nokia C5 is a smartphone. It runs S60 5th edition.

Actually Nokia C5 runs S60 v3 not v5, the Nokia 5230 runs S60 v5. The 5230 can handle most tasks without a hiccup and has decent battery life with a large screen. Also it has GPS, along with A-GPS so both offline and online Navigation are possible.

Have been using nokia 5230 from 9 months and can say overall great phone , but definitely slow (with 4gb card and handfull of apps)
take looks at mm a60 , quite a good phone..
gal 5 wud actually suite all ur needs (- the battery)

 

[desiibond]

up the budget to 9.7k and LG Optimus One. much better than other sub 10k phones.

 

[Soumik]

+1 for Optimus 1

Under 7K Nokia 5233 and 5230 would be better.

galaxy 5 would be a great choice, but its bit above your budget.
